The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A chaotic, arcade-style racing game where you dodge traffic and outmaneuver hundreds of opponents in a colorful, retro-inspired race against the clock.

What players say

Players call this a well-made retro arcade homage to Road Fighter and early OutRun. Many note the difficulty spikes hard around the Exotic class, requiring hours per single race, and some wish for an easier mode. The game was pulled from sale just over a year after release, and performance can be heavy despite simple graphics.
